TeamTreehouse Badge Script, am I doing it right?

I've just created a little PHP script (kinda my first one) to display Information using TeamTreehouse's JSON feed (eg. displaying Badges).

But sadly I'm not sure if I've got all that MVC stuff completly right and if I could improve the script itself or functionality of the script. I'd appreciate any tips and hints you have!

Eike, I looked over your code and everything looks good to me. You might consider building a static method for your class the calls the different views files based on a string. Something like :

class::display_badges("random:);
class::display_badged('all');
class::display_badges('latest');
class::display_badges('limit', 10);

I think something like that might be helpful for people using your script
